OMG! Am I Going To Get Sappy Here?

First of all, I would like to say that my sister, Lacy, is AWESOME!

Really, she didn't even bribe me with bacon to say that. I came up with it all on my own!

Wanna know what she did? Do ya? Do ya?

Ok, keep your pants on (except for you there sir...you can take yours off). I'm gonna tell you.

My sister made a beautiful pictorial tribute to our mom and put it on YouTube.

My mom. Isn't she lovely? (Just say, "YES!")

Our mom died in 2000 before she could see either of her beautiful grandbabies, who I will describe for you now. Briefly, so you don't get bored.

My daughter is Miss Smarty Pants (MSP), and she was born in 2001. My sister's baby, who we will call Rocker Dude (RD) was born in 2009. RD is so named because the child is not even 2 years old, and he already LOVES guitars. He likes to hold them, play them, look at them, lick them, what-ever-the-hell, just give the boy a 'tar and he is dandy.

So, without further ado, here is the video. I've narrated the pics below, just in case you give a shit who all these people are. Also, there are very sexy pictures of my legs included, so try to control your libidos, folks!

Ok, I guess that was WITH further ado, but now there's no more ado, so here is the video:
